Title Welsh point 45 Gwydnwch Dysgwyr Learner Resilience
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales estyn.gov.wales estyn.llyw.cymru Cefndir Background Cyhoeddir yr adroddiad mewn ymateb i gais am gyngor gan Lywodraeth Cymru yn llythyr cylch gwaith blynyddol y Gweinidog at Estyn ar gyfer 2019-2020. This report is published in response to a request for advice from the Welsh Government in the Minister s annual remit letter to Estyn for 2019-2020. The report identifies effective approaches to supporting pupils resilience in schools and pupil referral units. Mae r adroddiad yn nodi dulliau effeithiol i gefnogi gwydnwch disgyblion mewn ysgolion ac unedau cyfeirio disgyblion. Er bod y gwaith maes wedi ei wneud cyn y pandemig, gobeithiwn fod yr arfer effeithiol a amlygir yn yr adroddiad hwn ac yn Adnabod eich plant (Estyn, 2020) ac Iach a Hapus (Estyn, 2019) yn gymorth i arweinwyr a staff i gefnogi gwydnwch eu disgyblion yn ystod y cyfnod anodd hwn. Although the fieldwork was carried out prior to the pandemic, it is hoped that the effective practice outlined in this report and also in Knowing your children (Estyn, 2020) and Healthy and Happy (Estyn, 2019) will help school leaders and staff to support their pupils resilience in these difficult times.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Cefndir Resilience Yn y cyd-destun ysgol, mae gwydnwch yn ffocws allweddol o ran gweithredu academaidd (e.e. ymdopi methu ar dasg heriol) ac iechyd a lles emosiynol (e.e. canfod ffordd trwy helbulon). In the school context, resilience is a key focus in terms of both academic functioning (e.g. coping with failure on a challenging task) and emotional health and wellbeing (e.g. finding a way through adversity). Nid yw bod yn wydn yn golygu nad yw disgyblion yn wynebu heriau. Mae n golygu y gallent ymdopi n well heriau penodol ar adeg benodol o ganlyniad i nifer o ffactorau. Being resilient does not mean that pupils do not face challenges. It means that due to a number of factors they are better able to cope with particular challenges at a particular time.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Cefndir Resilience Yn gyffredinol, gwelir bod y ffactorau sy n cefnogi gwydnwch yn ymwneud r canlynol: The factors that support resilience are generally found to relate to: hunan-barch a hunanhyder self-esteem and self-confidence cred yn eich gallu ch hun i ymdopi belief in your own ability to cope a range of approaches to help you ystod o ddulliau i ch helpu i ymdopi perthnasoedd da gyda phobl eraill y cope gallwch ddibynnu arnyn nhw i helpu good relationships with others who you can rely upon to help
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales estyn.gov.wales estyn.llyw.cymru Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Resilience is the capacity to cope, learn and thrive in the face of change, challenge or adversity (Cahill et al., 2014). It is closely related to wellbeing and mental health, and we cannot easily develop resilience when we are unhappy or emotionally unwell. It also requires a degree of self-esteem and confidence, of emotional understanding, and the ability to establish trusting relationships and benefit from support. Gwydnwch yw r gallu i ymdopi, dysgu a ffynnu yn wyneb newid, her neu helbulon (Cahill et al., 2014). Mae n ymwneud yn agos lles ac iechyd meddwl, ac ni allwn ddatblygu gwydnwch yn hawdd pan fyddwn ni n anhapus neu n s l yn emosiynol. Hefyd, mae angen rhywfaint o hunan-barch a hyder, dealltwriaeth emosiynol, a r gallu i sefydlu perthnasoedd ymddiriedus, ac elwa ar gymorth. Schools that are good at building the resilience of their learners are those that promote the emotional wellbeing and support the mental health of all their learners. Mae ysgolion sy n dda yn meithrin gwydnwch eu dysgwyr yn hyrwyddo lles emosiynol ac yn cefnogi iechyd meddwl eu holl ddysgwyr.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales estyn.gov.wales estyn.llyw.cymru Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Yn ogystal chael dull ysgol gyfan ar gyfer lles, mae r ysgolion hyn hefyd yn darparu ymyriadau penodol ar gyfer dysgwyr sydd angen cymorth yn benodol. As well as having a whole-school approach to wellbeing, these schools also provide specific interventions for pupils who are particularly in need of support. Mewn llawer o achosion, caiff dulliau ysgol gyfan newydd eu mabwysiadu yn dilyn rhoi strategaeth benodol ar waith yn llwyddiannus ar raddfa lai. In many instances, new whole-school approaches are adopted following the successful implementation of a particular strategy on a smaller scale. The standard of care, support and guidance for pupils is good or better in most primary schools and a majority of secondary schools in Wales. Mae safon y gofal, y cymorth a r arweiniad ar gyfer disgyblion yn dda neu n well yn y rhan fwyaf o ysgolion cynradd, ac mewn mwyafrif o ysgolion uwchradd.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Schools that are successful in building pupils resilience have leaders that have developed a strong vision, supported by core values around promoting the wellbeing of all pupils. Mewn ysgolion sy n llwyddiannus yn meithrin gwydnwch disgyblion, mae arweinwyr sydd wedi datblygu gweledigaeth gref, wedi i chefnogi gan werthoedd craidd yngl n hyrwyddo lles yr holl ddisgyblion. These schools also place a strong emphasis on the wellbeing of their staff. Mae r ysgolion hyn yn rhoi pwyslais cryf ar les eu staff hefyd. Anaml y mae arweinwyr ysgol yn siarad am feithrin gwydnwch fel prif nod neu amcan. Yn aml, caiff gwydnwch ei gryfhau o ganlyniad i roi strategaethau ar waith i dargedu anghenion eraill disgyblion. School leaders rarely talk of building resilience as a main aim or objective. Resilience is often strengthened as a consequence of implementing strategies to target pupils other needs.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Mae ysgolion yn cydnabod nad oes ffordd hawdd o feithrin gwydnwch ymhlith disgyblion. Schools recognise that there is no easy way to building resilience in pupils. Maent yn deall ei bod yn broses y mae angen buddsoddi amser, egni ac adnoddau sylweddol ynddi. They understand that it is a process that takes considerable investment in time, energy and resources. A common feature of nearly all schools that are successful in building resilience in pupils is that there are very few, if any, fixed term exclusions over a long period. Nodwedd gyffredin bron ym mhob un o r ysgolion sy n llwyddiannus o ran meithrin gwydnwch ymhlith disgyblion yw mai ychydig iawn o waharddiadau, os o gwbl, sy n digwydd dros gyfnod hwy. Mae ganddynt ethos cynhwysol cryf. Maent yn ymdrechu i fynd at wraidd heriau penodol sy n wynebu disgyblion, ac yn fodlon rhoi cynnig ar wahanol ddulliau i fynd i r afael r problemau. They have a strong inclusive ethos. They strive to understand and get to the root cause of particular challenges facing pupils and are willing to try different approaches to address the issues.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Mae ysgolion da yn rhannu gwybodaeth rhwng y gweithwyr proffesiynol perthnasol a r oedolion sy n ymwneud disgyblion penodol yn effeithiol ac mewn modd amserol. Maent yn gwybod y bydd yr ymyrraeth yn fwy effeithiol os gallent nodi a chefnogi disgyblion sy n cael trafferth u hunan-barch a u gwydnwch yn gynnar. Good schools share information between the relevant professionals and adults involved with particular pupils effectively and in a timely manner. They know that the earlier they can identify and support pupils who are struggling with their self- esteem and resilience, the more effective the intervention will be. Mae ganddynt brosesau ar gyfer sicrhau bod yr holl oedolion perthnasol yn yr ysgol yn cael gwybod am unrhyw bryderon yn gyflym ac yn gywir. They have processes for ensuring that all the relevant adults within the school are made aware of any concerns quickly and accurately.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings The most successful schools understand that building resilience is a continual process that begins with developing good relationships between adults and pupils and between pupils themselves. Mae r ysgolion mwyaf llwyddiannus yn deall bod meithrin gwydnwch yn broses barhaus sy n dechrau datblygu perthnasoedd da rhwng oedolion a disgyblion, a rhwng y disgyblion eu hunain. Maent yn deall bod pob un o r staff yn gyfrifol am les emosiynol disgyblion, a bod pob rhyngweithiad ac ymgysylltiad disgyblion yn effeithio ar eu hymdeimlad o werth. They understand that pupils emotional wellbeing is the responsibility of all staff and that every interaction and engagement with pupils has an impact on their sense of worth. Mae staff yn gwybod bod eu holl eiriau, gweithredoedd ac agweddau yn effeithio ar les disgyblion. Pan fydd disgyblion yn teimlo ymdeimlad o berthyn a chysylltiad, maent yn fwy tebygol o deimlo n saff, yn ddiogel ac yn wydn yn emosiynol. Staff know that all their words, actions and attitudes affect pupils wellbeing. Where pupils feel a sense of belonging and connection, they are more likely to be feel secure, safe and emotionally resilient.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings It is important that pupils have regular opportunities to express their emotions and share their feelings at school. Mae n bwysig fod disgyblion yn cael cyfleoedd rheolaidd i fynegi eu hemosiynau a rhannu eu teimladau yn yr ysgol. Mae gan ysgolion da ddulliau clir ar gyfer gwrando ar bryderon disgyblion, a mynd i r afael nhw, mewn modd amserol. Good schools have clear approaches for listening to and addressing pupils concerns in a timely manner. Maent yn effro i sut mae disgyblion yn teimlo yn ystod y dydd, ac yn gweithio gyda disgyblion i nodi aelodau staff penodol y gallent droi atynt, os bydd angen. They are alert to how pupils are feeling during the day, and work with pupils to identify particular staff members to whom they can to turn if needed. Effective schools often work closely to support families of vulnerable pupils. Where the culture of the school is open and engaging, the families themselves may approach the school for support. Mae ysgolion effeithiol yn gweithio n agos i gefnogi teuluoedd disgyblion sy n agored i niwed. Pan fydd diwylliant yr ysgol yn agored a dymunol, gallai r teuluoedd eu hunain fynd at yr ysgol am gymorth.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales estyn.gov.wales estyn.llyw.cymru Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Mae ysgolion da yn defnyddio arbenigedd asiantaethau allanol perthnasol i ychwanegu at eu gwaith. Good schools use the expertise of relevant external agencies to supplement their work. Gall dulliau meithringar fod yn llwyddiannus iawn o ran helpu meithrin gwydnwch ymhlith disgyblion sy n ei chael yn anodd ymdopi u hamgylchiadau presennol. Nurturing approaches can be very successful in helping to build resilience in pupils who are struggling to cope with their current circumstances. Gall staff hyfforddedig helpu disgyblion i ddatblygu eu medrau personol a chymdeithasol a gosod y sylfeini ar gyfer meithrin perthnasoedd cadarnhaol gydag oedolion a chymheiriaid. Maent yn arfogi disgyblion r offer i w helpu i fod yn fwy gwydn yn wyneb gwahanol heriau. Trained staff can help pupils develop their personal and social skills and lay the foundations for building positive relationships with adults and peers. They equip pupils with the tools to help them become more resilient in the face of different challenges.
estyn.llyw.cymru estyn.gov.wales estyn.gov.wales estyn.llyw.cymru Prif ganfyddiadau Main findings Mae adegau pontio, fel symud ysgol, yn gyfnodau lle gall plant ddioddef gofid emosiynol, neu ostyngiad mewn cynnydd ac ymrwymiad i ddysgu, y gall pob un ohonynt danseilio gwydnwch. Transitions, such as moving school, are periods where children can suffer emotional distress, or a decline in progress and commitment to learning, all of which can also undermine resilience. All schools aim to ease the transition process for pupils, particularly at key transition points. Nod pob ysgol yw hwyluso r broses drosglwyddo i ddisgyblion, yn enwedig ar adegau pontio allweddol. Hefyd, mae gan ysgolion da strategaethau clir ar gyfer cefnogi disgyblion sy n symud ar ganol tymor, yn enwedig wrth dderbyn disgyblion a allai fod wedi cael trafferth yn eu lleoliadau blaenorol. Maent yn dod i adnabod y disgyblion newydd yn gyflym, gan sicrhau bod cymorth ar gael o r cychwyn. Good schools also have clear strategies for supporting pupils moving mid-term, especially when receiving pupils who may have struggled at their previous settings. They get to know the new pupils quickly, ensuring that support is available from the outset.
